This environmental control program is the world's first large-scale use of a tradable emission permit system for achieving environmental goals; The book analyzes the behavior and performance of the market for emissions permits, called allowances in the Acid Rain Program, and quantifies emission reductions, compliance costs, and cost savings associated with the trading program."--BOOK JACKET
